a 4Tlputt VI AoSc'
Friday, June Sd, 1897, was a memora-
BILE ay in the history of Trinity Church, this
Town. 1t was the occasion OF a, memorial
service held in connection with the placing of
a mural tablet there to the memory of ''Mary-
lands Great Presbyter," the Rev. Meyer Lee
win, D. D., who was the rector of this church
at the time of his death about one year ago.
The tablet is an offering of the love and tes-
monial of the deep reverence this congrega-
ton entertain for the memory of a great and
good man. 1t is the handiwork of skillful
architect, Mr.. r. Geissler, of New York, and
ia a very finished and beautiful prod uction.--
The tablet proper is of magnificent, pure white
Italian marble resting upon background Of
black marble highly polished. The letters of
the inscription are artistic in design and ricE-
ly gilded, making very pleasing effect in
combination with the beauty and purity Of
the marble. The words, so complete and ar-
propriate, are as follows:

Glanoers.
Last week, Dr. Patterson, L. 5. In
spector, found TWO horses affected with Sian-
ters on the farm of Mr.. A. o. Brady, near
Forestville. He reported the eases at once to
the State authorities.
On Tuesday last, DR.. Wari, State Neter-
nary Surgeon, in company with DR.. Welch
Professor of Pathology, Johns Hopkins Cui-
yersty, and DR.. Clement, |. 5. Inspector
met at leelaud. In company with Dr. Blru,
our County Health Onlcer, DR.. Fairfax, Mr..
Il. Lee Belt ands others, then proceeded to
Mr.. Brady's farm. They there found one OF
the horses had died two days before.
Here also they found DR.. A. Mckenzie,
Veterinary Surgeon, of Washington, employ
ed by Mr.. Brady TO protect his interests
These, experts all, including DIR. Mckenzie,
confirmed DIR. Patterson's diagnosis. The
horse was then killed and careful post NOR
TEN was made.
They formed the peculiar phases OF the dis
ease developed plainly in many of the intern
al organs. These pecuiiarities We're fully eN-
planned by the experts to those present and
made It very interesting to all.
Before the horse was killed it apprais-
ed by Dr. Bird and Mr. Belt, and Mr.. Brady
will receive tie sum of so for his loss.
The other horses which have been in con-
t act with the diseased ones, though now
sound, were placed in quarantine by DIR.
Ward in order to watch the results and pre-
vent OILERS from taking the disease.
DR.. Patterson was appointed to investigate
the whole State OF Maryland outside of Bal
timore city, and has already made tour of
fifteen counties. He has finished also the
Southern portion Of this county aud has now
gone to the neighbo!hood of Washington.---
will be his postoiiicc address dur
ing the next few weeks. He is a genial,
pleasant gentleman and is thoroughly inter-
ested in the important work he has in charge
He reports that no diseased cattle have yet
been found in this county, although he states
hat it is probable that there are or have been
cases in the locality which he is now visiting.

Care Ct the Eyes.

Care CT the Eyes.
A prominent optician in a large city re-
Gently said that cigarette smoking does more
injury to the eyes than anything he knows of.
He also gave the following advice: Keep a
shade Oh your lamp or gas burner. Avoid all
sudden changes between light and darkness.
Never begin to read, write or sew for several
minutes after coming from darkness to light.
Never read by twilight, moonlight or in
cloudy days. Never read or sew directly in
front of the light, Window or door. 1t is best
to let the light fall from above obliquely over
the left shoulder. Never sleep SO that on
first awakening the eyes shall open on the
light of a window. Do not use the eye sight
by light SD scant that it reIiir.' an effort to
discriminate. The moment you are instinct
lively prompted to rub your eyes that moment
stop using them If the eyelids are glued to-
gether on waking up do not forcibly open
them, but apply saliva with the finger, it is
the spcediest diiuent III the world then
wash your eyes and face in warm water.

NIistakes in Dairying.

Correspondence Country Gentleman
While it is true that there are cows and cows,
the dairyman that achieves success Is the man
who does by intelligence, and not bv the per-
Torrance of the cow ubaided by dairy knowl-
edge on the part of her owner. There can never
be full success in dairying until few things
accepted and acted upon namely-that milk
giving is wholly distinct from fat.forming or
beef productions that heredity is q great under
lying principle of deep. long mixers; that the
cow is q mother, and that success in dairying
must be made to conform 70 this principle. and
that the more nearly we assist the cow to per-
form the obligations of motherhood the moro
nearly shall we achieve success. Another idea
il that milk production calls for milk p-oduc-
ing food, not q beef stimulator. Now this brings
mo to the point wish to make: The failure Of
a cow to perform in production equal to the
expectations Of her new owner, is more often
tho result of his failure to treat her In accord
ance with the principle we have laid down than
lack of capability on the part of the cow. A
cow is purchased and cared for the same as We
would steer, and then We declare the whole
system of breeding dairy cows a fraud.

The Country Charm.
Pittsburg Chronicle.


Grant what you will about certain dscomforts
of farm life, there probably never lived boy
brought ND on a farm who cid not. in after years,
look back upon this period as happy one. and
no experience in the cities ever obliterates the
charmed recollection. The woods, the meadows,
the brooks, the old MILL the country school
house. the squirrel and rabbit hunts, the apple
orchard and the cider press, the rustic dance.
the county fair, the books read by q backlog
fire, the changing seasons, and the fancies COM
ing with them-aL these make 8 picture In the
brain, dear and beautiful forever. 1t is privl-
lege to come near to nature in childhood. The
city born and bred lad and lass never do
quite get ON familiar terms with
clover fields ripening grain. with
ancient trees and shadowy creeks. with
wild dells and browsing cattle. with the piano.
rama of driving clouds and the cadence OF pas
toral bells. To the rural child, the very crows
slowly winging their way homeward at shutdown
have friendly aspect The barn is temple OF
delights The huge red gate post wears . fond,
companionabIe look. Whether it be daisies or
snow. the world of nature to the country boy or
girl is stuffed with messages and pictures that
please or thrill. And some day the grown-up
man or woman, tired Of the pageant or fever OF
great towns, seeks once more peace and JOY In
eylvan spots where the sky can be seen and the
accent of the winds truly heard and the odor OF
the earth come again charged with fragrant
memories It is pleasant to close life In sight OF
grass and hedgerows, and hear the mower whet
his scvthe in the hay fields. The pomp of pal
aces is a poor affair compared with this. To
our mother we must come at last.

Heat and Drought.
Farm and Home.


Some excellent lessons are taught by the re-
port on the condition of the fruit crop issued by
Secretary Goodman, OF the Missouri Horticultu-
raj Society. It shows that every orchard well
cultivated during last summers drought came
through the winter fully so per cent better
than orchards seeded to grain. grass or clover.
Raspberry plantations suffered severely from
the drought and winter killing. and many old
ones have had TO be cut down, but new planta-
tons well cultivated are in fine condition, and
the same applies to the strawberry. The fact
is emphasized that tn e best mulching and the
best protection against drought are both found In
cultivation. Rust is spreading among small
fruits and to prevent its spread affected beds
should be plowed UP and replanted with fruits
free from disease. During the winter the mer-
curry went down to 20 % degrees for one or
two days, though the peach buds were not
killed. Last summer 1t went as high as lO4 to
lO8 degrees in the shad e. but the drought made ir
seem worse than 1t real lily was. Summer drough hit
Is more serious draw back and greater injury
than winters cold. Fruit growers have not been
injured as much as stock men, who were COM
PEELED TO do their fe eding early in the summer.
